You've done a wonderful job of expressing my sentiments on this issue. What annoys me even more is the degree to which projects like Gnome copy Apple's design decisions that make their tools less effective for "Power Users".
By the way, the "Power Users" term is used to marginalize people who are willing to learn to use their tools. The results of using this term in this way have IMHO slowed the growth of the computing industry.
